Canada will remain a crucial partner for the United States in "key areas," Prime Minister Mark Carney says as he addresses a meeting of top global investors in Toronto. "To our American friends, let me say this: We will always be neighbors, and Canada will continue to be the US's most important partner in many key areas," the prime minister tells the Canada Investment Summit as trade tensions with the US escalated.

00:00And to our American friends, let me say this, we will always be neighbors, and Canada will
00:08continue to be the U.S.'s most important partner in many key areas. After all, even at times of
00:17disagreement over our long shared history, we have always maintained deep ties.
00:25These arrangements work best when we engage as true partners that respect each other's
00:33traditions and sovereignty. And when those opportunities return, Canada will be an even
00:40better partner, stronger, more resilient, more independent, ready to advance our mutual economic
00:48and security interests.
00:49Le monde a changé. Le Canada a pris conscience très tôt de ce changement et a agi en conséquence.
00:58Nous consolidons notre force au pays et diversifions nos partenariats à l'étranger. Nous mobilisons
01:051 000 milliards de dollars d'investissement en vue de bâtir une économie plus résiliente,
01:11plus concurrentielle et plus souveraine.
01:13Face à l'incertitude mondiale, le Canada offre la stabilité d'un partenariat de confiance
01:20et les possibilités uniques d'un pays en voie de devenir la grande économie ayant le meilleur
01:28réseau de relations dans le monde.
01:32Today, four centuries on, I and my colleagues welcome you to a Canada which is both a safe
01:41harbour and a base to build that's perfectly situated to build in the new global economic
01:49order. That world is becoming, as we know, more dangerous and divided. Sovereignty and
01:58openness are intention. Economic integration has been weaponized. Tariffs used as leverage,
02:04financial plumbing as coercion, supply chains as vulnerabilities to be exploited.
02:08And next month, we will begin discussions with the EU, the world's second largest economy,
02:14to build a unique security and economic alliance.
02:18alliance. Our core objective of all these partnerships is to increase our sovereignty,
02:25our strategic autonomy. Because, as I said earlier, we live in a world where integration
02:31has been weaponized. Because a country that cannot feed, fuel or defend itself is not truly
02:37sovereign.
